    Was that a better performance than pac vs cotto, all thing considered?

    Probably not

    Thsts a good one…Cotto went on to have a few good victories and headline many more ppvs. That’s why I want to see Spence fight a top 10 guy…

    For me, this was easily better, because I predicted that Pac would wipe out Cotto. I'm not even pulling a Manny Steward, old threads would reflect that I said Pac was gonna destroy Cotto in one sided fashion.

    This was far more unexpected, and far more impressive.

    Yeah, i guess it will depend on what Spence does from now on. If he moves up and get beats by a Castano, it would take some luster off this victory. If he bests some good names at 147, 154 and/or 160, it make the win even more impressive

    How competitive could Vergil be at 154 vs Boots in your opinion?

    Btw Boots is a real talent but I'd like to see him vs a guy like Ortiz before he dives head in to the deep end of the pool vs Crawford on his very next fight. I think Crawford destroys Boots.

    I don't think Verg is physically or mentally built for the elite level in this sport. Not physically, because he's sickly. And not mentally, because he strikes me as too much of a nice guy. Quiet guys who flip a switch and become ruthless and very mean in the ring, like a Boots, eat up cats like Vergil.

    Boots Doesn't Completely WIPE His Ass w/Verg, But He Wins CONVINCINGLY, in REED's Opinion...6th-7th Round Stoppage...

    Boots vs. Crawford AIN'T Happening...Boots' Time is NEAR; He's Already the Interim IBF Champ & Crawford/Spence Are Eye'ing '54...'47 Will OFFICIALLY Be Boots' Division in 2024...

    Midway through round 2, Spence closes the distance on Bud, and tries to out-muscle him... Bud pushes him off like nothing. That was the point that I already knew for sure Bud had it. I even remember screaming at the TV: "Bud is stronger! Spence is fucked out here!"

    I didn't know it would become a wipe out, but I knew right then Spence was in a losing battle.

    lol
    Philly vs Baltimore huge fight in the northeast…

    135 to 147 is danger zone if you a bitch…Tank has plenty to deal with at 135&140…

    Tank would take Claressa Shields on before getting in there with any elite guys from 135-147.

    He's not willing to deal with any of it. If I had to guess, I'd say Tank targets that fraud Chris Colbert next.

    Well he needs to do something….he hit it big with that Ryan ppv…how many more tuneups easy fights can he get?… He won’t even rematch Cruz…that an easy victory so I don’t know why he so worried/scared about…

    By the sounds of things, he'd do that for free - and he's already been practicing.

    I'd give him a pass just for Shields. She deserves to take a Leo Santa Cruz type uppercut.
